So, the tripple Goddess is a common thread through many neo-pagan witchcraft traditions. I was wondering what people thought about this deity. I myself am just starting to understand how the concept may work through the cycle of the moon and the earth in some ways.

I've discarded the concept as unhelpful. My Goddess is associated with the moon, yes, and the earth, but the Maiden-Mother-Crone concept has proved more of a barrier to understanding than an aid to it.

Whoever the Triple Goddess is, I do not know her. But personally, I think it's more of a concept applied to existing goddesses than a specific and particular goddess in her own right.

Thank you for that insight. I am still developing my understanding of deity in this manner. Hell I only recentlly saw how my application of deity relates to the MMC concept.

I am a hard polytheist myself, at least to an extent. I believe all gods are real. I believe that aside from Wicca most of the witchcraft traditions may worship the same two sets of deities expressed in different forms often mistaken for other deities.
